  • Lyrics: Chorus Richard shouldn’t play with dead things Richard shouldn’t play with dead things Richard shouldn’t play with dead things Richard shouldn’t play with dead things V1 When he was a boy he spent his time alone No brothers or sisters filled his empty home He happened to be the only kid on his block So he kept company with twigs and shiny rocks But one day he found a worm burned dead by the sun He picked it up and twirled it ‘round and had a ton of fun And his parents would pout and silently shout (Chorus) V2 He’d board a yellow bus and go to high school And the jocks and the dorks would say he wasn’t cool He couldn’t keep steep with the marching band In gym class he couldn’t hold a headstand And another day passed ignored by the girls So in science class he danced with dead squirrels And his teacher would grumble and silently mumble (thought that) (Chorus) Bridge Someday I’m gonna be someone I’ll be the center of everyone’s fun No one’s gonna talk behind my head I know what’s alive and I know what’s dead V3 Nowadays he’s done with worms and squirrels He keeps his morgue filled with beautiful girls And they look at him and pout and loudly shout (that) (Chorus) (Chorus)
